New Toilet Installation in Lilburn, GA

A straightforward like-for-like swap is a flat-rate job; the price climbs only if we hit a bad flange, a rotted subfloor, or a corroded shutoff that needs replacing first. Buying a customer-supplied toilet is fine - we can set one you've already purchased. Either way you approve one upfront price before we start, with the old toilet hauled away included. Call 770-398-STAR for a number.

A standard replacement is usually about two hours - most of it in pulling the old unit, prepping the flange, and testing the new one for leaks. If the flange is broken, the shutoff is seized, or the subfloor around the toilet has rotted, it takes longer because we fix that first rather than set a new toilet on a bad base. You'll know the scope and price up front.

Yes - removal and disposal of the old toilet are part of a standard install, at no surprise extra fee. You won't be left with an old fixture sitting in the garage or on the curb. We pull it, protect your floors on the way out, and take it with us.

Comfort-height (or 'right-height') toilets sit about two inches taller - roughly chair height - which is easier on the knees, back, and anyone with mobility limits, and they're the more popular choice today. A standard height can suit shorter users or kids' bathrooms better. We'll help you match the bowl height and shape (round vs. elongated) to who uses the bathroom and how much space you have.

For a like-for-like replacement in the same spot, generally no - it's treated as a minor repair across most Gwinnett County jurisdictions. Adding a new toilet, moving one to a new location, or running new drain and supply lines can trigger a permit. Rules vary by city, so we'll tell you whether your job needs one and handle it if it does.

WaterSense is the EPA label for high-efficiency toilets that use 1.28 gallons per flush or less - versus the 3.5 to 5 gallons older toilets used - while still meeting flush-performance standards. On a Metro Atlanta water bill the savings add up over the year, and the Metro Water District has run rebate programs for replacing old high-volume toilets. Modern low-flow models flush as well as or better than the ones they replace.

Not necessarily. A rocking toilet is usually a failed wax ring, loose closet bolts, or a damaged flange rather than a bad toilet - and a base leak left alone will rot the subfloor. We pull the toilet, find the real cause, repair the flange or subfloor, and reset it on a fresh seal. If the fixture itself is cracked or worn out, we'll tell you and swap it instead.

Yes. If you've already picked out a toilet - from a home center or online - we're glad to set it for you. We'll confirm it matches your rough-in before we start, install it on fresh hardware, replace the wax ring and shutoff as needed, and test it. Buying the fixture yourself and paying us for the labor is a common way to do it.
